First period ponderings, Game 6

The Predators really needed that Nick Spaling goal. They had outplayed the Ducks all period and Anaheim had a 1-0 lead off a goal-scorer’s goal by Teemu Selanne.

As mentioned, the Predators look better than the Ducks. The difference is that Anaheim has a lot of finishers who can change the game with one shot. That’s what you saw with Selanne’s goal. The Predators are out-shooting the Ducks 10-4.

It will be interesting to hear how loud this building will be when the teams come out for the start of the second period. Spaling’s goal gave the fans some life.
